Plain English summary of protocol

Background and study aims
Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare blood disease that causes red blood cells to break apart, releasing the haemoglobin inside. This happens because the surface of a person’s blood cells is missing a protein that protects them from the body's immune system. The release of haemoglobin causes many of the PNH symptoms like dark urine, anaemia, tiredness, difficulty swallowing and stomach pain. If left untreated, PNH can lead to serious medical complications.
This is a study to determine whether participants who have received the investigational medicine called OMS906 in two previous PNH studies and responded well to it, continue to find it safe, tolerate it well and maintain a good response to it.
OMS906 is an antibody. Antibodies work by binding to specific proteins in the body so that the harmful effect of that protein (or pathogens such as viruses) are removed. OMS906 binds to proteins involved in a specific part of the immune system. As a result, it is hoped the red blood cells in PNH patients which are missing a surface protein will not be attacked by the immune system and not break apart, thereby improving PNH symptoms, or by stopping PNH symptoms from getting worse.

Who can participate?
The study will include up to 25 participants who are over 18 years old and have participated in one of two previous OMS906 studies; one for PNH patients who had received ravulizumab previously but with only a partial response to it, and one for PNH patients who had not received previous treatment.

What does the study involve?
The study will include one evaluation visit and up to 14 treatment visits (at 8 weekly intervals) over a 2-year period.
The participants PNH symptoms will be closely monitored during the study and results from the study may be used to develop future treatments for PNH.
The study is organised and funded by Omeros Corporation a biopharmaceutical company developing PNH treatments and is being conducted at St. Jame's University Hospital in the UK and at 4 other centres in Europe.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
Benefits:
Participating in the long-term extension may benefit a patient by the continued good response in terms of less anaemia, and thereby less tiredness, but this cannot be guaranteed.
Risks:
OMS906 has been given to 54 healthy volunteers. A single-dose sub-cutaneous (SC) and IV administration of OMS906 has been generally well tolerated in all volunteers. In addition, OMS906 has been given to about 25 patients in the previous PNH studies and has appeared safe and well tolerated to date. However, as with any investigational new drug or research study procedure, there may be risks that are not known that may be serious and may even cause death.
To date, the following, having been identified in animal studies and/or clinical studies, are considered as possible risks associated with giving OMS906 in humans at clinically important doses:
ALLERGIC REACTIONS: All medications can cause allergic reactions that can be mild or more serious and can result in death.
BIRTH DEFECTS (if given during pregnancy): Females who are/trying to get pregnant or are breastfeeding are excluded. Females able to become pregnant and men with a female partner able to become pregnant must use highly effective contraceptive measures during OMS906 administration and for at least 20 weeks after the last dose of OMS906.
INFECTION OR WORSENING OF EXISTING INFECTION BY CERTAIN BACTERIA: Vaccination against N. meningitidis, S. Pneumoniae and H. Influenza are required for this study. To mitigate the risk of infection, participants will be counseled and reminded of the early signs and symptoms of infection.
INFUSION/INJECTION SITE REACTIONS: These may occur such as redness, bruising, soreness or pain, or swelling in the arm or hand where the cannula is inserted.
PROCEDURAL: Risks associated with blood draws and ECG are given in the PIS.
INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER MEDICATIONS: The side effects and risks of taking OMS906 may change when it is taken with other medications, so it is very important for the participant to tell the Study Nurse about any medications (prescribed or over-the-counter) that they are taking. Participants cannot be in this study if they are taking any other unapproved medication.

The participants will be closely monitored for infections, vital signs, liver function, haematology parameters, and potential injection and infusion site reactions.

Participant information sheet No participant information sheet available
Scientific titleAn open-label study to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of OMS906 in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH)
Study acronymOMS906 PNH Long-term Extension Study
Study objectivesPrimary objective:
To assess long-term safety and tolerability of repeat-dose OMS906 5 mg/kg IV administration at 8-week intervals in patients with PNH.

Secondary objectives:
1. To assess long-term efficacy by the effect on haemolysis and anaemia measured by haemoglobin (Hb), LDH, and red blood cell (RBC) transfusion burden
2. To assess the incidence of breakthrough haemolysis
3. To assess population pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD)
4. To assess anti-drug antibodies (ADAs)
5. To assess the effect of OMS906 on Quality of Life, using the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT)-fatigue scale

3.2. Use at least 1 of the following medically acceptable methods of birth control: hormonal methods (combined estrogen-and-progestogen-containing hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation [oral, intravaginal, transdermal] or progestogen only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation [oral, injectable, implantable]), intrauterine devices, intrauterine hormone-releasing systems, or a vasectomized partner.
